Letters: Trump a change agent

Global terrorism and domestic violence must be stopped. President Obama’s lack of enforcing his own red line in Syria has now allowed Russian President Putin to bomb Syrian children, hospitals and civilians. Unfortunately, Obama does not realize diplomacy doesn’t work unless it is backed by strength. The almost eight years of Obama’s acceptance of mass murders by radical Islamic extremists within even our own borders is intolerable.

Obama and Hillary Clinton continuously accuse their opponents of waging war against all Islamists. Yet Americans are being murdered by radical Islamist terrorists yelling “Allah akbar” before they kill. There is certainly a need for surveillance of some Muslims because Obama has failed to provide global and domestic protection from terrorists.

Obama has not only failed to protect us against terrorism, but he also has failed to serve as a positive role model for young black men. He failed to inspire them to establish and achieve career goals. He failed to inspire them to be the best they can be. He failed to encourage them to stay in school and to avoid crime and drugs. Obama’s lack of leadership in the black community has caused increased racial tension and violence.

Now is the time for a change.

Donald Trump is a change agent. He will challenge the status quo. He will rebuild our military, economy and inner cities. He will create more and better jobs. He will provide opportunities for the impoverished. He will make our country safe by securing our borders. Trump has the leadership experience and the passion to make America great again.

My name is Ashley and I’m a member of the Sheboygan Jaycees. I volunteer for the Dominion of Terror, a Jaycees project. I wanted to give some background on what the project is all about.

Our year starts in March, after our encore show “Terror in April,” we start tearing down and rebuilding the house. This provides opportunities for people to learn construction, be creative and team work. We have several people who come down to help out that normally wouldn’t have an outlet or be given an opportunity to learn new skills and meet new people. Half of the volunteers aren’t Jaycees, but rather people who dedicate their time to something they are passionate about. It also promotes and encourages the skills needed to lead teams and committees.

The house is for entertainment, but proceeds go back to the community. Organizations such as RCS Empowers, Mental Health America, ARCS, SPD K-9 Unit and many more have received donations from our proceeds. Every year we also fund a project called “Spend with a Friend,” where volunteers take under-privileged children shopping for Christmas gifts for their families. Our event “Munch with Monster” is one Saturday in October where children come to trick-or-treat and do crafts.

I wanted to share the great things that this project does for the community. We are aware that there are some people who don’t like haunted houses, which is completely understandable. But please, be respectful and stop threatening the volunteers, screaming that we are evil, or throwing water on us when you see us at an event. We are volunteering our time to benefit their community. If you are interested in learning more of what we do, please contact us at (920) 918-2270.
